I had the Ez-up from Sam's Club which I just found out the model was made exclusive for them. It lasted several hard years of use u til it was broke by someone helping take it down. Worth $200 for sure. I bought one through my Axo discount which looked to be made great, very light but I was concerned about the aluminum construction. I was right to worry, first use in moderate wind it folded. When looking for a replacemental I have found that sams is selling a different brand now and all the ezup models on amazon are confusing. Some of the models are definitely cheaper made than what they replaced. Some people out there having any luck with any other brands/models? What about some of the race specific ones, any of those out there somewhat affordable(

I don't have any input but need a new one soon too. I had wondered about the axo ones and also SAMs. I had looked a while back for a heavy duty but I remember them being real pricey.

I just found this awesome company that looks to be made in the states, King Canopy. The festival model is just a bit more pricey than ezups midgrade, they also have all parts for sale if you do break somthing. I was gonna pull the trigger but shipping was $44.00 so I'm gonna study about it. By the way , the Axo tent was decent. I didn't strap it down as I should. My old one I would just anchor in the middle to the cooler, the axo needed a bit more attention but may be worth it with the 50% sponsorship discount.

Try this EZ-UP brand model....the Speed Shelter. Stronger than most. Does great in the wind. Easy up and down. Strong fabric top. I've had mine for 11-12 years and still going strong.

Although no good to you i've had my Quickshade (Oz brand) since 1994 and it is still as strong as ever. It never sags under heavy wind or rain. i payed $800 dollars for it back then. i will not buy any other brand.

I bought mine at Academy and it's on it's third year. There are straight leg and slant leg. I like the straight leg canopies best. This one is blue. You could paint "YAMAHA" on it and it could be a factory yamaha canopy.

Costco has a nice Coleman one. Best part is they'll return it for a new one if it ever breaks.

The Pro Wheel Race shades are expensive at $475.00 for the 20ft x 10ft model, but the quality is far superior to any of the Walmart brands. The unit is pretty light, very sturdy and the canvas is really thick.

We have 20 or so in back of the warehouse, if anyone wants one I'll be happy to hook some members up just to move them.

I've been using an EZ up for awhile , I had one of the cheaper units fill up with rain water and collapse. Now I bring 4 hoola hoops and stick one in each corner to add support in the corners to keep from collecting water.

The last one I purchased was going to last me a long time. I treated that thing like a baby. The 3rd time I used it was a beautiful day with zero wind so I didn't steak it down. A hurricane gust comes out of nowhere and takes it away. Folded it like a cheap suit. I was so pissed of at myself.

Not sure if yours is beyond repair but we bought a discounted returned ez up from Sam's last summer for like 60 bucks and it had missing parts. We just ordered them online from the company that makes them. Simple. Parts were sent fairly quick and not overly priced.

The one I have had is pieced together from 3 different ones that went tumbling in the wind at our track years ago and people left them. I have fixed it about 3 more times with the extra frames I had.
